July 18, 2022 Chicken Tenderloin

Panda Express Teriyaki Chicken

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Copycat recipe for the panda express teriyaki chicken sauce. Make this with chicken thighs, chicken breasts, or my favorite, chicken tenderloins. Plus, cook them on the grill, in the oven, or on the stovetop! A super versatile and delicious dish.

If you know me, you know my top two food categories are takeout dishes and copycat dishes. Therefore, I put the two together and made some Panda Express teriyaki chicken! This comes after my Panda Express honey sesame chicken.

Copycat recipe for the panda express teriyaki chicken sauce.

You can make this dish with chicken thighs or chicken breasts and slice them into thin strips, which is more typical of Panda Express. I personally prefer this with chicken tenderloins as they are very tender and become very flavorful in this marinade. However, if you prefer a different cut of chicken, you can certainly use that.

Quick Tips from Allie Carte

  • You can cook the chicken however you like. Typically, this would be grilled; however, you can also cook these on the stovetop, in an air fryer, or in the oven.

  • Serve this chicken with rice and veggies!

What you Need for Panda Express Teriyaki Chicken

This is typically made grilled; however, you can make this on the stovetop, in an air fryer, or in the oven. Just make sure you have your preferred cooking equipment.

  • Chicken tenderloins
  • Soy sauce
  • Lemon juice
  • Brown sugar
  • Ground ginger
  • Garlic powder
Chicken Tenderloins

However, I personally prefer this with chicken tenderloins as they are very tender and become very flavorful in this marinade. However, if you prefer a different cut of chicken, you can certainly use that.

soy sauce

I use a gluten free, low sodium soy sauce here. It will not only be used for the sauce; however, also be utilized to coat the chicken in the breading mixture. This will make the chicken super tasty! 

However, you can use a regular soy sauce. But, please me mindful of the sodium content if you are not using a low sodium version.

Brown Sugar

Brown sugar replacement is a staple in my household, it is great on so many dishes. I use the Swerve brand; however, Splenda has a brown sugar blend, and, alternatively, you can use regular brown sugar.

How to Make Panda Express Teriyaki Chicken

Start by marinating the chicken. Fork up the chicken a little to allow the marinade to penetrate the chicken. Combine all the ingredients, including the chicken, into a baggie or a covered dish and set in the fridge for about 30 minutes. However, if you are low on time, you can just marinate it for a few minutes.

Once ready to cook, heat a large pan over medium high heat.

Add all of the ingredients, including the chicken and marinade, into the pan. Bring the marinade to a simmer and allow it to simmer for four minutes.

Flip the chicken over and continue cooking for another four minutes. Continue simmering until the chicken is fully cooked. At this point, the marinade should be gone as well.

However, you can also grill, air fry or oven bake the chicken.
